Xabi Alonso cool touch drastically changed Leverkusen performance, which has become a new force in the Bundesliga and even Europe. Borussia Dortmund managed to stop Leverkusen brilliant run, Leverkusen winning streak stopped after only being able to draw in the last match played. Leverkusen have still avoided defeat this season, they are still in top form and so far as has been shown in 13 Bundesliga games, Xabi Alonso's troops are still the strongest challenger to Bayern Munich in the title race this season.

Bundesliga could be resumed in this: Bayern Munich win all the time, they have always one competitor per season, whenever a team rise, another one drop between Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig and Bayer Leverkusen mainly. There is a random team that pop-up a season then drop, this time it is Stuttgart.
Borussia Dortmund this round did a favour to Bayern Munich after slowing down Xabi Alonso and Bayer Leverkusen steps toward the title and allowed them to get the draw once they win vs epic fail Union Berlin.

So, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen currently have 2 draws but ya, at least Bayern Munich still have one match pending. But indeed, although there seems to be no definite guarantee for Bayer Leverkusen to get the trophy but ya, at least Xabi Alonso has managed to make Bayer Leverkusen break the club record this season. Because anyway, great appreciation is also certainly given to Xabi Alonso for managing to make Bayer Leverkusen unbeaten in all competitions so far. Therefore, although in the last match Bayer Leverkusen was held to a draw by Dortmund, but for me such a result is still a good result for Bayer Leverkusen.

Luck is still on Laverkusen side thanks to Xabi Alonso hot hand. Their statistics continue to rise all the time, there has been no negative side shown by Xabi and his squad so far, topping the Bundesliga, Europa League standings and qualifying for the last 16 of the DFB Pokal. In these three competitions, Laverkusen has not been defeated, an achievement worthy of praise.

To come to a conclusion, whether at the end of the season Laverkusen will be champions or not, I think it is still too early to guess. The way Xabi polished the club to such an extent is what is more interesting, I think all managers envy him in the sense of wanting to be like Xabi.

The management applied to the players, the approach and chemistry of Xabi and the players made the plan run smoothly. I think even if Laverkusen fails to win in the future, Xabi has attracted the interest of a number of big clubs to recruit him in the future.
